Compa's Mexican Grill & Cantina - St Marys, Georgia

I've been to Compas before, and the food was good, but this time it was sub par. The cook could use a few tips. The service was wonderful though, and I would still probably come back when I'm craving Mexican.

The ambiance is a small, family-style, restaurant, with lots of wood furniture. We went there for an early dinner and there was no wait. We were seated immediately, and our server Amanda was friendly and attentive the whole time. She constantly checked on us and refilled drinks without us having to ask.

We were brought out chips & salsa almost immediately after being seated. The chips were very fresh and the queso and salsa dip were tasty. I ordered the quesabirria, which came with consume. The beef was very tender and juicy, but there was barely any cheese and the taco could have been fried a bit more in my opinion. The consume was standard.

My mom ordered the steak, chicken, and chorizo plate that came with rice. She complained that it was too salty, but instead of sending it back she tried to put lots of lemon juice on the meats to be able to eat it. She did end up telling our server Amanda, who was kind enough to remove it from the bill. Amanda apologized and explained that there was a new chef working that night. The sweet tea was fresh and good.

Although our food was mid this trip, I've had some good dishes at Compas before and would still come back to give them a try.

The food it’s ok like a 4/10, I could tell the beans and rice weren’t fresh, felt like most of the food was just heated in the microwave, the service was great but the atmosphere was death no music and the ceilings and wall were full of dirt/dust it was disgusting. I would not recommend this place to anybody.

We had forgotten about this cool little place! We decided to visit for Cinco De Mayo this afternoon. Robert was our server and he was hustling! The chips are light & fresh, the salsa is fantastic, and they aren't stingy about refills. I had a jumbo margarita rimmed with tajin & the Cancun plate. It was perfect! I especially loved the veggie mix. Hubby had chicken fajitas. Don't sleep on this little gem!

Don’t do it. From the second you walk in, the smell of the place is unbearable. Draft beer was very sour, place was dirty. Air vents filled with dust above you, chair cushions falling apart everywhere. Food was inedible, nothing like the pictures shown in the menu. Kids food came out 20
Minutes after adults food, will never return.

Everything about this place was on point. The food was delicious and reasonably priced. The portions were more than enough. The staff was amazing. Our server was so great with the kids. On our way out the door one of my littles spilled an entire glass of pop. I was so frustrated. She didn't miss a beat. She came right over with napkins. When I apologized, her response was it's not a big deal. These things happen. She helped clean up the mess with a smile. I wish I knew here name she was so awesome!! Thank you for your service. It's always nice to encounter people who actually enjoy there job.

First time and around 12:30’ish for lunch. Thought that was a good time. Food was cold. Told the waitress and she said someone turned the heating down.. If it wasn’t cold, it was dried out. So disappointed. It would have been a good price if the food was fresh and warm.

Food was good as usual. Our server took good care of us.

We have eaten here several years back, must have been a change in cooks because the food was lousy two days ago when we ate here. It wasn’t busy, service was ok, food not so good! Servings were plenty, however not good enough to take home.
